The percentage of electronics at the end of their lives which were recycled.
The EPA found that the percentage remained consistent from 1999-2005. Even as recycling rates went up, the amount of electronics reaching end of life outpaced the increase, leaving the figure static. (source: EPA, July 2008)

Bought it from Amazon last week. The 46" model looks pretty good 0 dead pixels and no banding issues that many Samsung and Sony customers have been complaining about. Preloaded "Interactive" content is pretty cool but I haven't hooked it up to Internet yet. It comes with Ethernet port but no cables, 3+ HDMI ports and no hdmi cables... The ONLY composite video input is on side of tv.
ToC (touch of color) is just reddish paint sandwiched between Plexiglas/acrylic bezel. Unless someone does a 'case-mod'-like upgrade, you won't even notice this 'touch' of color unless sun is glaring at it from behind.
Since Samsung bluray (live) player will not be out for a while, pairing this with SONY PS3 is probably your best bet.
I now how to either buy a wireless bridge or drag two eithernet cables to it from my Verizon FIOS wireless router.
FIOS TV cablebox will only do 1080i or 720p so you will not take full advantage of your new purchase unless you also get a bluray player that does 1080p.
TV itself is supposed to be able to play AVI files but I have to check which codecs it will support. I think xvid is the only one but it may support divx as well (if not now then maybe in the future)
USB port is very handy and makes it easy to display digital camera's photos. There is supposed to be a wireless adapter that goes right into it but I don't think it's available in USA yet.
